Discover the breathtaking beauty of Sri Lanka's highest plateau, where misty grasslands meet dramatic escarpments
Stand at the edge of a sheer 880m drop for one of the most spectacular viewpoints in all of Asia
Experience the natural wonders of Horton Plains National Park with Grand Ceylon Holidays. This UNESCO World Heritage Site sits at an elevation of over 2,100 meters (7,000 feet) and offers some of Sri Lanka's most spectacular landscapes and biodiversity.
Our guided tour takes you through mist-shrouded montane grasslands and cloud forests to the famous World's End, a sheer cliff with a breathtaking 880-meter (2,900-foot) drop that provides panoramic views across the southern plains of Sri Lanka. On clear mornings, you can see all the way to the distant coastline. Another highlight is the beautiful Baker's Falls, a picturesque waterfall named after the famous explorer Sir Samuel Baker.
Horton Plains is home to an extraordinary array of wildlife, including endemic species such as the purple-faced langur, sambar deer, and if you're lucky, the elusive Sri Lankan leopard. Bird enthusiasts will delight in spotting endemic species like the Sri Lanka white-eye, dull-blue flycatcher, and Sri Lanka bush warbler.
Grand Ceylon Holidays ensures your comfort and safety throughout this adventure with experienced guides who share their knowledge of the park's unique ecosystem and conservation efforts. Our early morning departure maximizes your chances of clear views and wildlife sightings. This moderate trek through one of Sri Lanka's most pristine natural environments offers a perfect blend of adventure, natural beauty, and ecological discovery.
